I'm confident he'll be back for the playoffs...I'm just worried he won't be back to the level of play we are accustomed to. I know I shouldn't say that because he's Sid and he always proves us wrong, but I can't help but worry it.

God, why does something **** always happen late in the season just as we're hitting our stride? If we have another disappointing playoff exit, I don't know what I'll do...

As long as guys are back for the playoffs I don't see the issue. If anything, the injuries can have some benefit of keeping the team grounded as they go down the stretch. They're running away with the division and even the top spot in the conference, for that matter. They have a 15 game winning streak and are showing few if any weaknesses right now. But the playoffs are still a month away. I'd be a lot more worried about things coming unraveled at the wrong time if they had everyone right now than if they have to deal with some significant injuries over the next few weeks. I'd think it should be harder to develop bad habits when they're not necessarily winning by sheer talent overload. Kind of like they were doing last year.

Yeah, but if we're looking at the worst case scenario here Sid is not back for the playoffs.
